OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Comment by Terry'saproudmom(Ship02-Div936) on July 30, 2011 at 12:24am: It is really up to you. Since you don't know which terminal to go to you could wait near airport and go when he calls or you could go and wait at the USO and wait for him to call you if it isn't the right terminal you can always move. Do you by any chance know the airline...or did he not know? If you know the airline we can go online and find out which terminal they are in. For me because I knew the terminal I wanted to be there when he arrived so we left before the Navy bus did....but again foiled by the storm.

Comment by florida_girl ship 3/div 235 on July 29, 2011 at 11:49pm: wow, good thing the weather has been nice this weekend... ya to be honest I dont have much info on flight... he didnt double check (guys... lol) but he is leaving at 6 and I am staying right up the road so does that mean I should leave the same time and go to uso to be safe!

Comment by Terry'saproudmom(Ship02-Div936) on July 29, 2011 at 11:47pm: I was lucky, My Sailor knew his orders at PIR and handed me a paper with the info. We just had problems because of the storm. In terminal one (don't know about the rest) there was a bank of phones so he called us and told us exactly where to find him once he got there (3.5 hours late due to flooding)

Comment by florida_girl ship 3/div 235 on July 29, 2011 at 11:44pm: and will they find out that tomorrow after checking in to uso

Comment by florida_girl ship 3/div 235 on July 29, 2011 at 11:41pm: thanks terry =)

Comment by Terry'saproudmom(Ship02-Div936) on July 29, 2011 at 11:41pm: My son didn't leave out of terminal two so we just met him at his terminal which was terminal 1

FLORIDA GIRL: Here is the USO info:

Located in Terminal 2 above the Northwest ticket counter on the mezzanine level, near the chapel. Take elevator up and follow the signs.
Hours: The USO O'Hare does remain open 24 hours

Comment by florida_girl ship 3/div 235 on July 29, 2011 at 10:43pm: dianne I hope you can help me with this and it is not to late, but where is the USO in Ohare I looked and on the USO Illinois sight says one is in terminal 2 and another says terminal 3. AHHH where do we go. I send KC mom a message with my cell in it to text me. Hopefully we can hook up again!

Comment by diannep on July 29, 2011 at 9:30pm: Hope you find out, KCsMom. You should be able to meet up with him at the USO at OHare though. SO don't worry...just get on out there in a few hours! Congrats to you all !

Comment by KC'smom on July 29, 2011 at 6:20pm: Floridagirl.... or anyone else going to DLI in Monterey. My son forgot which airline he is going to in the morning, so we dont know where to go. Only know O'Hare. If you know, can you message me??? By the way, great meeting you last night!!!
